Federal authorities culminated a 2 year long investigation with the arrest of Journeyman late Thursday afternoon at his Baltimore residence.
The Baltimore raid uncovered nearly 200 grams of LSD, contained on roughly 4000 of pages of plain white paper. Authorities describe the notebook size pages as containing text advertising a novel doorbell system. An anonymous neighbor of the Journeyman informed reporters that nearly every day at 3:30 PM, roughly 1/2 a dozen teenagers leave Journeyman's house with a stack of fliers.
The involvement of the teenagers in the drug operation has not been fully established. Authorities are also investigating that Journeyman may have sold these fliers over the internet at $200/page. He guaranteed that each flier would yield roughly 6 times its price. Detectives commented that this was the largest seizure of its kind since the Woodstock era. The street value of the seized fliers is estimated to be 4,8000,000, or $1200/flier.
Hamneggs investigative reporters received information from an inside source via telegraph that Journeyman only informed his "runners" that is all they had to do was sell these fliers, and the money would roll in. The operation is estimated to have yielded over $9 million over the past two years.
Lead defense attorney Armando Stouffer indicated that he would be filing a Motion to Dismiss on the grounds that authorities arrested the wrong man. Stouffer did not comment on the whereabouts of the "real" Journeyman, but his client, Journeyman the "character," is innocent on all counts. Authorities refused to comment regarding the issue of Journeyman's alleged duality. Stouffer indicated that should the case proceed to trial, he will focus more heavily on Journeyman's affirmative defense that he was "just trying to help fellow posters."
The contents of the fliers have not been fully disclosed, but early reports suggest that the fliers contained trace, but potent quantities of LSD, but primarily consisted of a metablic steroid designed to enhance the girth of one's arms. Journeyman, who frequents Gold's Gym and is often featured in widely distibuted Big Guns magazine, is estimated to have biceps roughly the size of sumo sized medicine balls. (See pictures below taken by Hamneggs Breaking News' lead photographer Uncle Butternutts) Reporters declined to comment on the size of the remainder of Journeyman's body.
Journeyman is also being charged with conspiracy to entice minors into the illicit drug trade. Subpoenas have been issued for various underaged forum posters, including Trying 2 Win and Henhouse. The review of countless Instant Messenger conversations with these minors, as well as those that took place with well known, convicted drug smugglers CrAzY JiVaN IvAn and Vega; have been the focus of the 2 year long surveillance. Kingpin "Sick Gambler" is still at large, suspected to be hiding his head in the deepest, darkest, skankiest areas of Cleveland.
The arraignment is scheduled to take place early Monday morning. Due to his Zeus like arm strength, Journeyman is being held in a maximum security facility, and was permitted to select a maximum of only 3 visitors. He chose his attorney, his mother and Fred Norris. Efforts by Norris to have Journeyman transferred to a Las Vegas prison have had little force.
Although comment has not yet been publicly released, authorities report that they also seized a handful of grey gerbils, plastic bags, and 400 lbs. of lubricant. Story at 11.
